Restrict link with htaccess file

I need to restrict access to any link that contains the word user.

My rewrite rule looks like this 

RewriteRule (^|/)user(/|$) - [F,L]

It works fine when http://sitename.com/user is used but does not work for http://sitename.com/?q=user

Can anyone suggest a fix for this ?

Thanks in advance

You'll have to check the request uri and the query string separately like this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST}  !^123\.456\.789\.123$ 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  ^/user$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^q=user$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ / [R=302,L]
